"Man the sadness in this is simply overwhelming, but in a quiet sort of way. Like slowly sinking in a bottomless ocean." — 18 hours, 43 min ago

“We need the poetic lens because
quantifying
the physical properties of iron isn't quite
the same

Some purchases make us consumers,
some make us a community.”

“Step inside my cabin and hang your coat by
the door.
You smell of snowfall and hemlock boughs.
I just fed the stove and the logs are
whispering like radio static.
Soon, that white lace on your boots will
pool on the floorboards,
making them shine like polished stone.
Rest here as long as you like.
It's not trouble that our meeting place is
imaginary.
Many worthwhile things are.”

“The rat will adapt to most any landscape.
The beaver will gnaw and slap and drag the landscape to fit her needs.
I can't tell you which is better.
Just reminding you that both are options.”

“Moss doesn't race trees skyward hunting
for sunlight.
It thrives just the same.
When your mind hisses like a kettle,
look to your elders, to the green lessons
of soft, simplet quiet beneath the sun.”
